Raiden Densetsu (nur Cart)

Picked this up for the cart alone and was blown away — the soundtrack's got that raw arcade riff that keeps you locked in, and the stages punish sloppy moves without ever feeling cheap. Played for hours straight and the difficulty curve just pulls you deeper in.

The level design is brutally fair, no cheap hits—just pure challenge that makes each clear feel earned. My thumb's sore from the relentless action, but I keep coming back for more.

The riffing soundtrack alone is worth the price, it's the kind of chiptune that keeps you locked in even after a brutal death. The simple play mechanics mean I can jump right back in for another run without any menu fuss, which is exactly what I wanted from a cart-only pickup.
